As Pain said ESF does not work with HL 2 or HL source. It also dosent work with Condition Zero or CS Source for that fact ^^

Just thought id say that.

ESF uses Half-Life 1.

So here are the steps.

Get Half-Life 1.
Get Steam.
Install Half-Life 1 into Steam.
Run Half-Life 1 through Steam once.
Get the 1.2.3 full installer.
Run the 1.2.3 full installer.
Enjoy ESF.

Half-Life 1 is not the same as Half-Life : Source.

You can pick up a copy of HL1 at a local gaming store I believe. If you'd like to do it through Steam, I believe they offer it with a package deal.

You will have to pay for a copy of Half-Life either way.

As for the order, it's not terribly important which you get first. If you already have Steam installed just install HL1, or vice versa. Just know that you need Steam to run Half-Life 1.

Warez and other such illiegal downloads are not permitted on these boards. Do not ask for a place to download a game, and do not ask for CD-Keys.

So the answer is no. You cannot get it from Kazaa, you have to buy it because you need a CD-Key that comes with it.

Downloading Half-Life wouldn't work with steam anyway

Any key you would get would already be taken and steam wouldn't let you register it. And without registering it you cannot play it or any of its mods

Buying Half-Life 1, or any game that needs a CD-Key for that matter, will always come together.

I bet you aren't using Steam. Am I right?

Sometimes people or employees will open the boxes and take the CD-Keys. That is why you should have returned it to the store and either gotten your money back or gotten a new copy. Then again I already told you that in another thread.

yopyop I do believe you've been given a solution in a couple other threads. If you don't like it, or don't want to do it that way. I'm sorry that's not our problem. I don't want you invading anymore threads with the same problem that we've already told you how to fix.

Seeing as how this topic has taken a turn for the worst, and the original problem seems to have been solved, it's getting owned.

- Closed.
